Artec Studio 10
Both Artec Eva and Artec Spider were tested in Artec Studio 10 (version 10.1.0.92). During all tests in "Geometry+texture" scanning modes both Eva and Spider were capturing at good FPS:
- Eva: 13-14 FPS, approximately 2200 frames were captured.
- Spider: 6-7 FPS, approximately 1000 frames were captured.
Artec Studio 11
- Scanner: Artec Eva
- Artec Studio 11 version: 11.1.0.107
- Scanning in "Geometry + Texture" mode (without real-time fusion):
- 14 FPS, when you start the session.
- After 3000 frames are captured (in total), FPS decreases up to 12.
- After 4500 frames are captured (in total), FPS decreases up to to 7.
- Scanning in "Geometry only" mode (without real-time fusion):
- 14 FPS, when you start the session.
- After 4500 frames are captured (in total), FPS decreases up to 7.
- Scanning in real-time fusion mode:
- 12 FPS, when you start the session.
- After 500 frames are captured (in total), FPS decreases up to 9 (due to Intel card).
- After 4500 frames are captured (in total), FPS decreases up to 5 (due to Intel card).
- Main post-processing algorithms work correctly (align, global registration, sharp fusion, etc).
- Texture mapping can also work on Intel card in Artec Studio 11. Maximum size of texture atlas available for this card is 4096 x 4096.
The tablet performance is excellent and what we especially liked is set of SHIFT/CTRL buttons right on the front panel. These buttons are extremely useful for Editor section in Artec Studio 11 while working with manual tools like Eraser or Defeature.
